Ql) (a) Discuss the concept of 'Energy Audit' and suggest some means by.
. which energy audit-ishelpful in energy- conservation.
(b) Discuss the objectives and desirable characteristics of a tarrif.
Q2) (a) A consumer has annual consumption of 70.000 kWh. The two part
'tarrifis Rs.l 00 per kW of maximum demand plus 50 paisa per kWh of
energy consumed. Obtain the annual bill and overall costs/kWh if the
loadfactor is 0045. .
